For the second time in his young career, Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Brice Turang is a Gold Glove Award winner.

Turang's first Gold Glove came back in 2024, which was only his second season in the big leagues.

This is a guy who's been with the Brewers on a full-time basis since 2023, and to say he's given them a defensive boost would be an understatement.

On Sunday, Nov. 1, it was revealed that in addition to being a World Series champion this season, Turang would end the year on another high note with this prestigious award.

Fresh off an appearance on "Saturday Night Live," it's been quite the past week for the 26-year-old.

Of his 582 at-bats this season, 574 of those came at second base. Turang is a true everyday second baseman for the Brewers, and this team sure is lucky to have him.

The right side of the Brewers infield could look a little different if Jake Bauers doesn't return, but the Brewers at least know they still have Turang under contract potentially through the 2029 season.

Turang has been worth every penny, and his one-year, $4.15 million deal in 2026 was an absolute steal.

Once arbitration hits, that number is going to continue to skyrocket, so it'll be interesting to see if the Brewers end up locking him up long-term.

Turang was one of two Gold Glove finalists for the Brewers alongside Jackson Chourio. The path for Chourio to win his first Gold Glove was a bit slim up against Ian Happ, but either way it's still great to see more than just Turang represented.

Brandon Lowe and JJ Wetherholt were Turang's opponents, but Turang was the one who ended up winning the prestigious award. 

Overall, Turang was a career-high 7.3 WAR player this season. For reference, he was a 11.7 WAR player in his first three seasons combined, so it's crazy to think just how well he performed in '26.

Turang's DWAR mark sat at 2.9 which was two points higher than the 2.7 it was when he won his first Gold Glove back in '24.

In 1,311.7 full innings at second base, Turang made just five errors. He ended the year with 369 assists and 91 double plays with a .992% fielding percentage 

For reference, Turang played just 12.0 innings at shortstop, so it was a true rarity to see him out of position, even though that's where he played before coming to the majors.
